THE MOST HIGH GOD OF ABRAHAM, ISAAC, AND JACOB
“Now these are the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments, which the Lord your God commanded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go to possess it: That thou mightest fear the Lord thy God, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy sons and thy son’s son, all the days of thy life; and that thy days may be prolonged. Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as the Lord God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the land that floweth with milk and honey.” Deuteronomy 6:1 - 3
“O earth, earth,
earth, hear the word of the Lord.”

EXALTATION OF THE MOST HIGH GOD OF ISRAEL:
“…Stand up and bless the Lord your
God for ever and ever: and blessed
be thy glorious name, which is exalted above all blessing and praise.
“Thou, even thou, art Lord alone;
thou hast made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth,
and all things that are therein, the seas, and all that is therein, and thou
preservest them all; and the host of heaven worshippeth thee.
“Thou art the Lord the God, who
didst choose Abram, and broughtest him forth out
of Ur of the Chaldees, and gavest him the name of Abraham;
“And foundest his heart faithful
before thee, and madest a covenant with him to give the land of the Canaanites,
the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Jebusites, and the
Girgashites, to give it, I say, to his seed, and hast performed thy words; for
thou art righteous:
“Thou camest down also upon mount Sinai,
and spakest with them from heaven, and gavest them right judgments, and true
laws, good statutes and commandments:
“And madest known unto them thy
holy Sabbath, and commandest them precepts, statutes, and laws, by the hand of
Moses thy servant:
“And gavest them bread from heaven
for their hunger, and broughtest forth water for them out of the rock or their
thirst, and promisedst them that they should go in to possess the land which
thou hadst sworn to give them.”
Nehemiah 9:5-8,13,14
“For the Lord is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods.” Psalm 96:4

The TORAH READINGS are being
revised due to discrepancies in predicted dates for the New Moon “Sightings”
and an inconsistency in the start of the next Hebrew New Year. We desperately want to establish a
perfect Hebrew Calendar in the Name of the Holy ONE of Israel and for HIS
Exaltation and Praise. Therefore,
please bear with us.

SOME QUESTIONS TO PONDER:
What did the Scripture mean when it said, “And Samuel grew, and the Lord was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground?” I Samuel 3:19
After King Solomon built the Temple for the Holy ONE of Israel, YIHOVAH told him, “Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto the prayer that is made in this place” (II Chronicles 7:15). Question: Is GOD’s Word pertinent to those Israelites under Gentile control?

HINTS FOR HARDY, HEALTHY HEBREWS:
Many of us are quite educated in herbs for beverages and for healing. But for those of us who have little knowledge in this field, I would like to call your attention to a few herbs that we don’t always hear about. I might add that the modern medical authorities do not always accept the use of herbs for healing and for medical use. My personal opinion in this regard is that if people used herbs wisely, they might be able to heal themselves without modern medical assistance, thereby, doctors would become obsolete. Well, not altogether, but a great majority of them would go out of business, as fewer patients would fill their offices. And O’ my goodness, can you imagine how fast doctors would disappear once the World turns to the Most High GOD of Israel and HIS LAW to do HIS Will? There would be no need for doctors at all! Our GOD would heal the World!
But until that time, for some ailments, herbs are as good as a visit to the doctor:
(Trifolium pratense)
This is an ancient plant known for fighting cancer. The National Cancer Institute has discovered four substances in red clover with antitumor properties, including daidzein and genistein. This herb also contains tocopherol, a very potent antioxidant form of vitamin E that is known to prevent tumor formation in animal studies. Some suggest that it relieves menopausal symptoms when taken in large amounts, as some constituents of this herb perform like estrogen.
Boil three (3) teaspoons of dried flower tops in a cup of water. Let steep for 10 to 15 minutes and strain. Three cups a day are suggested.
(Althaea officinalis)
AKA “mortification root” (prevents mortification or gangrene)
Because it is known for several very common remedies, you might consider the Marsh Mallow herb becoming a member of your cabinet:
Root or leaves - Cleanses and heals wounds
Root, when pared and sucked or chewed, is good for sore throats
Good for bronchitis and coughs
Treats burns and scalds
Keeps the bowels regular
Syrup of Marsh Mallow roots stimulates the kidneys (when taken in teaspoonful doses several times a day).
An infusion made from the leaves have been known to help sufferers of
Cystitis, inflammations of the urinary tract and ulcers
(Trigonella foenum-graecum)
Not too long ago, a man excitedly told me, “This herb is a cure for everything!” And he told me that he drinks it every day! Well, I don’t know about all that, but I am a witness to the fact that it is a very good, fast-acting remedy for stomach and intestinal problems. I recommended it to several people, and they all found it to stand up to its claim. Before reaching for alka seltzer or baking soda for an upset stomach, go for this herb, and you’ll never go for the alka seltzer or baking soda again! And it doesn’t taste bad at all.
Fenugreek is an herb used for problems in the following areas:
Lungs, stomach, intestines, and reproductive organs
Prevents fatty deposits
Soothing for ulcers
Kills infections
Nourishing for mother’s milk
When used with lemon juice and honey it reduces fevers
When gargled, it is good for throat irritations
Dissolves cholesterol
Seeds, when boiled in water, are good for nourishment
I suggest that everyone visit a health store and purchase a handbook on herbs. The information on herbs submitted in this Newsletter is ever so brief. Therefore, always do your homework on these health topics for a more precise understanding of all the facts. And do realize that your comments and input are always most welcomed.

THOUGHT FOR TODAY AND FOREVER:
Let’s keep YIHOVAH and HIS Law our focus and pray for deliverance and fulfillment of all of GOD’s Word, so that every Nation will show forth HIS Praise and Exalt HIM above all other gods.
“Now therefore, O Lord our God, save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art the Lord, even thou only.” Isaiah 37:20

THE GREATEST “SPOIL” OF ALL
Learn about the Reparations Mass Movement and how YOU can get involved: Go to www.thelawkeepers.org and click on “Newsletter.”
The Israelites received Reparations for their free labor when they left out of Egypt (Exodus 12:35,36, Psalm 105:37). And it is prophesied that we will again receive compensation for our free labor and bondage in this modern-day Egypt:
“The Lord said, Verily it shall be well with thy remnant; verily I will cause the enemy to entreat thee well in the time of evil and in the time of affliction.” Jeremiah 15:11

EDITORIAL
PERSPECTIVE:
Israelite Brothers and Sisters and even significant others write to me all the time mainly regarding questions and/or comments on unrighteous Hebrews, Scripture, the Hebrew Calendar, Reparations, and leaving the land of our captors. And I try to respond with GOD’s Truth and the knowledge that is in my heart. With so much talk about going home and whether it’s time or not, in this editorial I’d like to briefly comment on Hebrew Israelites coming together to cause Our GOD to see that we are sincere about serving and worshipping HIM and ONLY HIM.
Too many times the Most High GOD of Israel has stated throughout Scripture that because we forsook HIM and HIS Law to serve and worship false gods, that HE has caused us to serve our enemies and turned HIS back on us. Many Israelites feel that this curse is still in effect, i.e., Our GOD continues to curse us. Well, this is not so. Our GOD has caused knowledge of HIMSELF to increase. HE has caused us to know our identity, and some of us seek to follow HIS Paths of Righteousness to worship HIM. Some of us acknowledge our iniquities and Proclaim and Exalt the Holy ONE of Israel as the ONE True GOD. This proves that this Great and Dreadful GOD is not still angry at us to continue to bring HIS Judgment down upon us, but rather to save us because we do in fact seek to follow HIS Paths of Righteousness and to do HIS Will. If Our GOD were indeed still angry at us, we would not know heads from tails about our identity and least of all about our heritage or HIS Law.
This Editorial is to all Israelites (and even the Stranger) who seek to fulfill Scripture. Please, recall the story of Jonah and the big fish. Jonah, being one of GOD’s Prophets knew that the Holy ONE was a Most Merciful and Caring GOD (Jonah 4:2). He knew that once people would repent from their evils and fast and pray for forgiveness of their sins that the Holy ONE would hear and also repent of the evil HE had in store for them. Jonah knew this and fled because he did not want to appear to be a false Prophet to say that Nineveh would fall when he knew that YIHOVAH would have mercy on the people of this place.
My People, Our GOD has not changed! HE is still the same Merciful and Gracious GOD that HE has always been. All we need do is acknowledge our great sins against HIM and, yes, pray and fast, to get HIS attention, and Our GOD will hear us just as HE heard the Children of Israel when they were down in Egypt. I am a Witness to Our GOD’s Merciful Kindness towards those who believe, hope, and trust in HIM to do HIS Will. I cannot begin to tell you of just how much YIHOVAH has blessed me. And by just permitting me to return to the lands where my forefathers lived, I am blessed. But more so, I am blessed because the Holy ONE of Israel is in my heart and the desire to do HIS Law and not fail HIM is on my mind constantly.
Every single one of us – every
person in our midst must call on YIHOVAH and do HIS Will. We must all have knowledge and fear of
Our GOD and HIS Law. And if even
one sinful individual is left among us, then that person will be “pricks in our
eyes and thorns in our sides,” as was the case when Israel would not drive out
the Canaanites as Our GOD had commanded.
This is not a difficult task.
All we need do is be serious about returning to the Holy ONE of Israel,
set perfect examples, use GOD’s Righteous Judgments, and fulfill Jeremiah
50:4,5. OR WE CAN SIT IN OUR
ENEMIES’ LANDS UNTIL THEY ARE DESTROYED. Blessed be the Most High GOD of Israel for HE has always
given us a choice: Serve HIM and
live and do HIS Law or go into captivity under the Gentiles (Leviticus
26:14-42).
“And yet for all that, when they be in the land of their enemies, I will not cast them away, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to break my covenant with them: for I am the Lord their God.
“But I will for their sakes remember the covenant of their ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the heathen, that I might be their God: I am the Lord.” Leviticus 26:44,45
“Mine eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may dwell with me: he that walketh in a perfect way, he shall serve me.” Psalm 101:6 (A Psalm of David)
We know the wickedness and many, many evils of our forefathers. We know how they strengthened the hands of evildoers that none would return from his wickedness (Jeremiah 23:14). We know the sins of our people, today. Therefore, we cannot afford to take any chances. We must – we have no choice – we must surround ourselves with people who thirst for knowledge of YIHOVAH and people who stand for HIS Righteousness. This is the birth of the Righteous Remnant of which GOD Speaks (Jeremiah 31:31-34; Ezekiel 37:21-23; Joel 2:32). This is what turning “every man” from his evil way is all about, as this is all it takes for Our GOD to return to us:
“If so be they will hearken, and turn every man from his evil way, that I may repent me of the evil, which I purpose to do unto them because of the evil of their doings.
“And thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord; If ye will not hearken to me, to walk in my law, which I have set before you,
“To hearken to the words of my servants the prophets, whom I sent unto you, both rising up early, and sending them, but ye have not hearkened;
“Then will I make this house like Shiloh, and will make this city a curse to all the nations of the earth.” Jeremiah 26:3-6
Deuteronomy 30th Chapter is being fulfilled, and we have got to realize its significance for all Hebrew Israelites who choose to worship YIHOVAH and live in the lands of our forefathers. Our GOD wants us to return home IF we have it in our hearts to serve and worship HIM and do and live HIS Law in Truth and in Righteousness! And if this is in our hearts to do so, then finally Our GOD, YIHOVAH will be happy and will bless us abundantly.
My People, we can cause our GOD to open all kinds of doors. If you think not, then let’s just give it a try. What can it hurt? And what do we have to lose??? Let us call for a universal fast and prayer to the Holy ONE of Israel to hear us and to establish us in Righteousness for HIS Holy Name’s Sake. Let us come together UNDER GOD’s LAW to call upon HIM to guide us and to reveal HIS Truth to us and to the World, so that HE alone will be Exalted, served, and worshipped above all false gods. I know HE will hear us, O Israel, because it is written that HE will save HIS People from far. All we need do is be sincere and be honest to ourselves, our Brothers and Sisters, and most of all to Our GOD!
Let us no longer prolong the days; let us just do what’s necessary to bring about the Exaltation and Praise of the Holy ONE of Israel who has long been forgotten because of our sins against HIM. After all that our forefathers and we have done to profane HIS Holy Name, it’s time we did something divinely constructive to Magnify ONLY HIM. Is not this the reason we were formed (Isaiah 43:21)? O Israel, we have a lot of catching up to do, and of that I think you will agree!
“If that nation, against whom I have pronounced, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them.” Jeremiah 18:8
“And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not.” Jonah 3:10
“Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? Saith the Lord GOD: and not that he should return from his ways, and live?” Ezekiel 18:23
It’s up to the Nation of Israel to cause Our GOD to return to us. So, why delay? And why make excuses?
“I will declare thy name unto my brethren:
in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.”
Psalm 22:22
LET US EXALT, PRAISE AND SANCTIFY THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL IN TRUTH AND IN RIGHTEOUSNESS BEFORE THE WORLD FOREVERMORE!
